Flat band ferromagnetism without connectivity conditions in the flat band
arXiv:1411.6477 · doi:10.1209/0295-5075/107/57005
Abstract
It is known that a system which exhibits a half filled lowest flat band and the localized one-particle Wannier states on the flat band satisfy the connectivity conditions, is always ferromagnetic. Without the connectivity conditions on the flat band, the system is non-magnetic. We show that this is not always true. The reason is connected to a peculiar behavior of the band situated just above the flat band.
